Punchtober dump days 2,3,4,5,6,7,9, and 11

You can probably tell which boxers I’ve never drawn until this point. I literally caught up on a lot of prompts today and even did tomorrow’s which I won’t post until then. Also Joe’s skin should be pink but my phone camera hates me and made it look like his normal skin tone so he just looks like he’s blonde wearing blue clothes. The palette was representing my favorite colors.

we should have gotten a scene of todo bending his powerful head over a desk and tutoring yuji. their calloused hands affectionately brushing over pencils, etc. in the process accidentally catching ryomen sukuna, greatest of demons, king on the blood throne, he-who-eats-his-enemies-hearts up to date on the last fun and funky 1000 years of japanese history.

What if Artemis was Isekai-ed into the Genshin world? Small child Artemis would find solice in the arms of the cat girl Heike (@s-el-fshipping-again 's Genshin OC).

Heike has already claimed the regular Artemis as her son but this just hits so much closer to home,,,, ;-;

Today's rabbithole: the origins of "dyadic" as opposite of intersex/h-word

TLDR: "dyadic" seems to come from 1970s radical feminism and seems to have entered intersex vocabulary via gender studies. This implies it is NOT a term coined from within the intersex community.

I've been reading Cripping Intersex since it's this month's pick for @intersexbookclub (and it's not too late for you to pick it up yourself! 💜). One thing that caught my attention is Orr spends a bunch of time presenting the origins of "endosex" and "perisex" as disputed for whether these terms were coined by intersex people or not.

Orr does this because they clearly prefer "dyadic" and are trying to justify why they're talking about "compulsory dyadism" rather than "compulsory endonormativity/perinormativity" etc. 🤨

Interestingly enough, Orr makes absolutely zero attempt in the book to find an origin for the word "dyadic". 🧐 Orr also never questions whether the term "dyadic" actually came from the intersex community. 🧐 So..... rabbit hole time!

Before I get into what I found on dyadic, I wanna quickly fact check Orr on the origin of endosex. Best as I can tell, the term was first used in German in 2000 by Heike Bödeker. Bödeker is controversial for supporting autogynephilia 😬, but I've never seen anybody doubt Bödeker having mixed gonadal dysgenesis. If anybody knows of an older use of endosex, please send it my way! But as far as I can tell, "endosex" was coined by an intersex person.

Okay, onto the origin of dyadic. Orr presents this word as though its only detractors come from its implication there is a sex binary, even though as @intersex-ionality discusses here there are other reasons people don't like it. One reason is that the term is considered to originate from outside the intersex community.

Orr never questions the origins of dyadic. But intersex-ionality's post got me wondering if I could track down an textual origin.

So I went to Google Scholar, searched for "dyad" or "dyadic" plus "intersex" or the h-word and kept changing the time period increasingly far back in time. (Initially I just used intersex until I remembered the h-word slur would be more common in older articles 😬.)

I went into this thinking maybe dyadic would be related to how in early intersex studies literature like Critical Intersex (2009) you can see authors trying out terms like "dimorphic" and "dimorphous" that reference sexual dimorphism. (Neither "dyadic" nor "endosex" show up in the book.)

But the earliest works by intersex scholars that invoke dyadic tend to use it in a way that implies to me it has its own origin - e.g. Malatino (2010) talks about "at one pole, the dyad of the dimorphic heterosexual couple and, at the other, the hermaphroditic body" and "the heteronormative promised land of proper dyadic, dimorphic sex" which gives me the impression dyadic has a more sociological origin rather than the biology origin of dimorphic.

This 2010 gender studies article by Mandy Merck that talks about the intersex rights movement was my first solid lead. Merck draws a direct connection between the intersex rights movement and the 1970 book The Dialectic of Sex by Shulamith Firestone. 😯

In the book, Firestone explicitly talks about the "male-female dyad". This book had a fairly big impact when it came out. Firestone was a big-name second-wave radical feminist. And as Merck puts it: "[Firestone's] aim is to release women and men from the culturally gendered[5] dyad of the “subjective, intuitive, introverted, wishful, dreamy or fantastic” and the “objective, logical, extroverted, realistic”[6] into a society undivided by genital differences. This she calls “integration.”" (emphasis mine)

Pushing the search terms to before the 00s, I found I there were some 1980s botanists kinda using "dyad" as an opposite to "hermaphrodite" (example). I don't know how standard this was though, and with Google Scholar it is important to remember that digitization becomes less common the further back you go. 🤷‍♀️

Judith Butler used "dyadic" in a 1985 article about Foucault's Herculine Barbin.

The Butler article got me searching for more generally - "dyad" or "dyadic" plus "sex-roles male female". I found lots of results using dyadic to talk about female/male sex roles from the 1970s.... and a rather sudden paucity of such articles in the 1960s. 🤔

When I restricted the search to anything before 1970, I get results from symbolic interactionist sociology. I.e. the sociology use of "dyadic" (i.e. any social interaction happening between a pair of individuals).

So looks like dyadic as a sex role thing entered the academic lexicon in the early 70s. Which lines up pretty damn well with The Dialectic of Sex coming out in 1970. 👍️ And indeed, many of the 70s uses of "dyadic" explicitly cite Firestone.

I'm guessing Firestone was probably influenced by the interactionist term. Lots of sociologists were talking about dyadic relationships and/or interactions such as teacher-student, parent-child, husband-wife, etc. In this context, it's not surprising that Firestone would pick dyad as a term to talk about male-female sex roles and interactions.

Other than the 1980s botany articles I didn't actually find much from the pre-2000 biology world, and no leads from the medical literature. This doesn't mean "dyadic" wasn't being used by physicans, just that it isn't showing up in my searches on Google Scholar.

I'm coming out of this with the impression that Merck's got it right to be connecting the intersex-related use of dyadic as originating from the writing of Shulamith Firestone. If anybody knows of competing evidence for an origin, *please* do send it my way as I'd be super interested. But in the absence of other evidence, I'd tentatively say that the term dyadic came out of second wave radical feminism and *not* the intersex community.

Some Kisses :3c

Hi again :DD, I'm a disaster having only the usual 3 idiots in my head... other drawing Genderbend, specifically again with my Fem Zemo :P (or Heike, did I mention that I gave her that name for obvious reasons? I don't remember tbh)

Knowing my history it's obvious who those kiss marks belong to ajsjs, but anyways. I'm trying a new style of lineart/colors and I would like to know what y'all think :3c

I will thank Jake Doubleyoo for introducing me to "Ho'ichi the Earless" and now...

Kenshi Headcanon time!

Oda Nobunaga was his ancestor spirit that carried the curse within Sento. He casted his enchantments by the day Mitsuhide Akechi was about to decapitate him with his own blade. Since then, whoever draws the blade will only have "their eyes on the other side to face the judgement from Heike's restless spirits". That just means they went blind and the ghosts will haunt them for life.

Sento was once Nobunaga's favorite sword, and he only trusted it on Yasuke's hands. By the time Nobunaga was assassinated, he was tasked to protect his son and that sword from being confiscated.

Guess what? Hideyoshi Toyotomi rules Japan after Nobunaga, and he ordered everyone(and I mean everyone) to surrender their blades or off with their heads. Yasuke, looked down by both Mitsuhide and Hideyoshi, spared from getting confiscated for his head is not worth their trophy shelf(this is why Japan's action genre always have their heroes and villains introduced themselves before a fight ensued to make sure they wrote it down

One day, Nobunaga's son was a rebel teen and quite curious about his retainer being so strict about one specific sword, so he grabbed it and...he went blind from it. Regardless, he could still make a proper living by working under Bakuto, which are underground gamblers, later becoming the Yakuza

Kenshi's spirit looked like they were blind because that's how he imagined them, for he had no clear vision(pun intended) of what they used to look like

He didn't know he was the only one who could see(more like, hearing) the spirits talked to him, occasionally telling stories in which his Earthrealm friends can only see him facing at a blank wall

That will change once Syzoth decided to live in Earthrealm and heard the same voices Kenshi heard, enjoying the stories of old days together.

Even if humans do see them outside of Sento, it required them to use a specific technology for astral communication

week 2! this one's gonna be all digital cuz i was home the whole week bc of a hurricane (too bad piston's prompt was last week)

this is a complete anomaly. do not expect this for weekdays like at all ever

7. bob charlie

was feelin kinda funky w this one, which is fitting for bob, i suppose. this, funnily enough, could also fit with the prior day's prompt, palette.

8. favorite boxer

so. uh. if you've seen my posts in the past like month and a half you probably already know who this one is. which is a bit awkward because his prompt is in exactly a week from this prompt, and my second favorite (at the moment) is 5 days from the prompt. and at the time of this post, they're in 4 and 2 respectively. thus, posting a drawing of them now and also next week/this weekend would be rather redundant.

buuuuut im doing it anyways because i love them very much :3

i did it for piston and gabby, what's two more?

i like to think clown and heike are besties and do their makeup in the locker room bathroom together, gossiping and taking way more time than they should

9, 10, 11. dragon chan, training, masked muscle

they fuckin hate each other /silly

Baké Kujira

Man I fucking love (preferably haunted) whale bones

(This is a loosely veiled Inu Oh reference, because well Kujira. I was gonna put the Heike crest on one of the flags but I ain’t drawing all that. So you’re just gonna have to take my word for it)

[oohbuggypie]

OKAY there's a lot of context behind this one srry but anyhow this post was made a couple days ago , i absolutely loved it and whatnot .. now exactly ONE DAY LATER i went to a thrift store and copped this coat that is eerily similar to the one Macho's wearing in that drawing , and i wanted to wear it with this outfit that i have planned in my head so i put 2 and 2 together and doodled Macho in said outfit 🩷

+ ADDITIONAL JOKE / TWEET EDIT UNDER CUT BUT WARNING ITS VERY VULGAR AND I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE 😭 I PROMISE THIS IS NAWT MY USUAL BEHAVIOR BUT IT WAS THE SECOND THING THAT POPPED IN MY HEAD + HEIKE MENTION SO I CANT NOT ADD IT

-------------------------------------------------------

SRRRRYYYY GUYS PLS FORGIVE ME
